Jetour has launched its new T1 and T2 models locally, which will officially go on sale mid-November at over 55 Jetour dealerships across Southern Africa.
What is it?
It’s a new SUV series that embodies ruggedness, capability and adventure-readiness, offering not just a vehicle, but a lifestyle, says Jetour about its new T1 and T2.
The Jetour T1:
The compact and versatile Jetour T1 has been designed for city streets and beyond, with four T1 models available: the 1.5TD 2-wheel drive Edge, 1.5TD 2-wheel drive Aspire, the 2.0TD 4-wheel drive Xplora and the top of the range, 4-wheel drive 2.0TD Odyssey.
All T1 models feature 540° panoramic view cameras, rear parking sensors, tyre pressure monitoring and LED lighting, including front fog lights, automatic headlights and rear tail lights. Practical features, such as electrically adjustable heated mirrors, roof racks and privacy glass, enhance convenience.
The T1’s engines include the 1.5TD (125kW) and 2.0TD (180kW) paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The XWD intelligent 4-wheel drive system, high ground clearance and 8 driving modes (Xplora and Odyssey only), including Sport, Snow, Mud, Sand and X-mode, deliver adaptability across terrains.
Inside, the T1 combines tech and comfort with a 15.6” infotainment screen (Xplora and Odyssey only), dual-layer soundproof glass for a quiet cabin, cloud-like ergonomic seats, and a spacious interior with flexible storage.

Cars are the ultimate symbol of freedom, independence and individualism. They offer the freedom to ‘go anywhere,’ whenever it suits and with whom one chooses.
